zzot, my Social Bookmarking Soulmate

zzot was the first user I ran into while searching for my social bookmarking soulmate (on delicious.com), and we clicked right away. Being the careful and picky person that I am, I looked around a little (and by a little I mean a lot) longer to see if there was a more perfect match, but after several minutes (hours), I ended up back back where I started. Which just goes to show, if it's good, take it first time around!
Luckily for me, zzot was not going to go anywhere, or be soulmated to another person (gasp!), so now we are happily living our social bookmarking lives together. But sadly, my partner seems to have been MIA for a while: he has not socially bookmarked something since October 27, 2011! Oh no, it seems I was too late for him afterall! Our interests were so in sync as well: he seems very crossdisciplinary with tags in design, art, music, games,culture, writing, to marketing, entrepreneurship, and technology as well. In fact, what he is missing is exactly what I would be missing: tags in science and engineering. I love that he has an "inspiration" tag; that is something I would totally do as well. His most prominent tags are design with 240, blog with 186, food with 146, art with 146, and music with 143. He has many many many tags: I believe he was trying to stay very organized but the effect of this is that it creates so many tags that the organization is questionable. But this is very similar to something like I would do as well..... It would have been useful if he organized his tags and bookmarks into stacks as well. This guy is, or was, a very prolific bookmarker: he has 1708 links in his name! He joined a while back though, in September of 2007. That's around 600 bookmarks a year!

What I especially like about zzot's bookmarks is his one and only stack: storytelling. This stack seems to have been created right before he stopped bookmarking, and there are only 8 links in it, but the links are very informative and interesting. I especially liked a link to an article called "Storytelling in China and America", which briefly compares the differences between the cultural mindsets of Chinese and Americans through interviews with children and examining how the children answered the questions about their lives. In addition, looking through his comics tag, I find that most of them are links to webcomics and some interesting comics blogs as well. One of the links I found really interesting was a link to a website called "What Things Do", which seems to be basically an online periodical for new comics to come out every month. I love the layout of the page and the comics on it seem very interesting as well, I hope to be reading them some time soon.  

All in all, zzot seems like a very artsy type of guy with an interest in a wide spectrum of things. He seems to use this site only as a collection for his links, although he does follow 9 users, he doesn't make any comments on his links or seem to interact extensively on this website. That's probably how my social bookmarking websites will end up as well...
